Patiala, September 11

A BJP leader and former chairperson of the Nabha Improvement Trust, Gurtej Singh Dhillon, has demanded that the Passport Sewa Kendras be improved so that these can accept more applications than their present capacity.

Dhillon had met Union Minister of State for External Affairs and Culture Meenakshi Lekhi in Delhi. He highlighted the need for capacity enhancement at the Passport Sewa Kendras. He said, “At present, the kendras have a capacity of accepting 40 applications. It should be enhanced so that people are not forced to go to Chandigarh. The minister has assured a speedy action on his request.”

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
